I have a preban HBAR for sale. I haven't been keeping up with the AR crowd for a few years now so I don't know the current market.  Anyway, it's a Match Hbar. Blue label I believe is what they were referred to. Has the flash hider, but not the bayo lug. What should I ask for it?

I think we'd need more info like what make it is. Pre-bans are nothing special anymore since the AWB sunset. We can have flash hiders, bayonet lugs, colapsable stocks and high cap mags again.

Uh... ok, since yer new... Blue Label means it's a Colt.  DUh!!!!

It's not worth anymore than any other AR depending on condition, methinks.

Might command a premium in the Occupied States, but no more than $1,000 I recon.

Yes, it's a Colt. 20 inch barrel.  I should ask $1000?

Well, it depends on several things including:

Overall condition of the rifle,
Local market (are there a lot of folks lookin for AR's?)
Is it going to a collector? (Someone who has to have a Colt)

My honest opinion, without seeing your rifle, don't expect more than $800 in any kind of used condition, selling it anywhere but in states that still have bans.  

Yeah, It's a Colt, Yeah, it's a Blue Label, but... as of last month... it's just another USED gun.

Thanks for the info.  It is in mint condition and has some extras.  I'm in the Denver area so there's a pretty good market.  I don't need top dollar so $800 it is.  Hopefully Colt quality and the chance of the AWB coming back will make it easier to sell.
